Man, did I feel GOOD!!

Yep - good ol subjective fair police work at it’s best.

I bet you’re one of those cops who aren’t actual Police – just traffic cops dressed up
I think Police honestly forget who they work for .. who pays them… it’s the public
A lot of Police forget they're actually Public Servants – bound by the Public Service Code of Conduct – commissioned to be ‘imbued with the spirit of service to the community’.

That really depends on whether you have a police helmet or grease gun..!

Are they?

It'd be lovely if they were, but I somehow doubt it.

They are, frequently, when it can be proved that the complaint was false.

Seemed like a reasonable request, sunny relaxed day etc, no stress.
F**king mole looked at me like I just shat on her bonnet.
I was told, (the portable communications enscriber) was not for general use.
Since then, I'll be polite, but look at them like they just stepped out of shit street central.

Lousy bloody tax payers don't cough up enough coin to allow you more than one pen a month so have some sympathy for the up tight cranky old sow.

But..but.. the public pay us and they WANT to see some effort for their tax dollars - and how better to show that than dishing out tickets???

... like the man in the video said, even if you have done nothing wrong, and you only try to say the truth, you may be caught out in a lie...

QED.

Had a guy push past me once. Nearly knocked me over.

He happened to be a white male.

Now I hate all white males.

He seems to be a very confused person - must be part woman, always changes the rules to suit his black self.

Like a mountain stream - always running

Judging by his actions of late, wouldn't surprise me if there was some truth to 'the complaint'. They certainly got one thing right tho - one arrogant son of a bitch.
